Minnesota was already an island of abortion care before Roe was overturned. Now, it’s worse. @MichelleEWiley and @bydanaferguson checked in with WE Health (who has seen a 25 percent increase), Red River and PP. Part two of the state of abortion ⬇️ mprnews.org/story/2023/06/20…

Nearly 1 year ago Roe v Wade was overturned. While many states saw abortion eliminated, Minnesota strengthened access. How did it happen? That’s what @MichelleEWiley, @bydanaferguson and myself explore in our series: the state of abortion. Read part one ⬇️ mprnews.org/story/2023/06/20…
NEW from me: @AllinaHealth will pause its controversial practices that allegedly resulted in some patients with medical debt being denied care:
mprnews.org/story/2023/06/09…
This comes one week after @sarahkliff and @jbsgreenberg broke the story. In response to their reporting, @AGEllison asked anyone with knowledge of the policy or practices to contact his office.
mprnews.org/story/2023/06/02…
AG Ellison said in a statement today that his office has heard from “a good number of Allina patients” in the last week. ⬇️
ALT I continue to be concerned about reports of Allina denying needed non-emergency medical care solely on the basis of medical debt. In the last week, my office has heard from a good number of Allina patients who have shared their own upsetting stories of being denied care for this reason. I continue to encourage anyone who has experienced or is familiar with these practices to contact the Attorney General’s office.

We've had to share this story about how to protect yourself from wildfire smoke too many times here @KQED ... but flagging it for our friends at @WNYC.

Check out this almost unbelievable time-lapse of wildfire smoke consuming the World Trade Center and the New York City skyline.
Those vulnerable to poor air quality, including seniors and young children, should limit time outdoors if possible.

Last year on June 24 the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. @MPRnews wants to hear from Minnesotans about how they feel one year post-Roe. Call 651-290-1187 and leave a voicemail with your story and contact information. We may use a portion of your audio on the air

Keeping Nurses at the Bedside Act conference committee this morning adopted its conference report. That moves next to both floors for approval. "We didn't find that quote unquote peace in the valley, but this is a really good bill," @SandraFeistMN says.
